Nursery Pantomime Trip

Well what a great time was had by all!  Aladdin banished the wicked sorcerer, freed the genie of the lamb, saved the princess and lived happily ever after. The children booed and hissed at the baddies and cheered and laughed at the goodies . There was a little ” he’s behind you ” and a few ” oh no he didn’t ” thrown in for good measure.

Magpie Moments in P7/6

This week we have been using ‘Magpie Moments’ during numeracy to support our learning!

We have been answering long multiplication questions on our whiteboards and using Magpie Moments to check our answers with other people.

The children must find someone else in the class with a different answer than them, to the same question. Each child takes it in turns to explain their thinking, reasoning and strategies and explain why they are correct.

We have had a lot of fun using this method of peer assessment and the children have learned a lot from each other by talking about their strategies together!

Christmas Fayre

Good morning,

 

St Joseph’s Christmas Fayre will take place in the school hall on Friday 7th December from 11 am. The school is a hive of activity as pupils make Christmas Crafts to sell.  More details of the stalls and activities will follow.   Thank you to all of the generous donations we have received so far.   Home baking, bottles, toiletries and objects for the child’s tombola would be gratefully received.

 

Thank you for you continued support

 

Mrs Burns
